This was our FAVORITE VRBO during our 2 week Alaska adventure! The home was so spacious and comfortable. The beds were amazing too! A lot of thought was put into this home to make it a great home away from home! We would definitely rent this home again when we are in the area.
The house was perfect for our one night stay in Talkeetna. Very spacious for our party of 7!Check in was easy and the hostess was very responsive!Highly recommend this home!
We loved this beautiful home! Check in and response time from the host was great. She was accommodating too. The beds were so comfortable. The living area was comfortable for gathering. It is the perfect hideaway but close to town! I would highly recommend staying at the amazing home!
This was perfect for our group of 7! Clean, spacious and just beautiful. This is a must stay property if you are in the area. Just a short drive to food and fun!
Well stocked kitchen, plenty of space. Everything was so clean and the view is beautiful. Host was responsive. Beds were comfortable. Everything was great!
Fantastic brand new house. Beautifully decorated. Managed very well in terms of kitchen appliances and supplies. Host Karrie is very responsive and we wish to come back again.
This is a great, spacious house. We were a party of 8 and everyone was comfortable and had plenty of room. It was so convenient to town- just a few minutes drive. Very quiet and comfortable.
This home was the perfect base for us to explore Talkeetna and Denali! It's a lovely, clean, and spacious home with sweeping views, and just minutes to town. There's an awesome coffee shop in walking distance, and we even had a nice visit from a mother moose with two calves in the driveway! Highly recommended to anyone considering the area, and so much more comfortable than other lodging options nearby.
We enjoyed the stay. The house was very clean and in a peaceful area, a couple of miles from Talkeetna, and hikes around the lake just a few minutes away. We enjoyed the fireplace with plenty of wood to use . Instructions were very helpful on how to use it. We would stay here again if given the chance.
Our stay was great! The home was in a convenient location and had plenty of room for multiple families staying together. The kitchen was well stocked and woodstove very warm and cozy.
Our group was delighted with the amount of space we were able to share in this home. We were able to cook a meal and sit together at a large dining table, which was also the space where we played games and had coffees in the morning. We could tell every detail was tended to. Thank you for the comfy stay.
This was one of the finest VRBO rentals our family has experienced. Clean, spacious, organized, well labeled, high quality. The house is beautiful and everything is in perfect order. Our family of 5 greatly enjoyed our stay, The only suggested improvement is to add to the list of amenities that there is a barbecue grill. We didn't see it listed...but later saw that it was shared (after we already bought our groceries) in the longer description of the property; but that's a minor point! Thank you for the experience.
